sUAS Noise characterization during hovering operations (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In the framework of the EPSRC-UK DroneNoise project, a multi-channel methodology for small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) noise measurement was applied under controlled conditions. The measurement campaign was carried out in August 2022 in Edzell,... Read More about sUAS Noise characterization during hovering operations.

On-field noise measurements and acoustic characterisation of multi-rotor small unmanned aerial systems (2023)
Journal Article
Ramos-Romero, C., Green, N., Torija, A. J., & Asensio, C. (2023). On-field noise measurements and acoustic characterisation of multi-rotor small unmanned aerial systems. Aerospace science and technology, 141, 108537. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ast.2023.108537

The noise signature of small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS) is highly influenced by specific operating and weather conditions. Accurate noise assessment of sUAS operations requires field noise measurements that capture all the compl...

The surface condition of roadways has direct consequences on a wide range of processes related to the transportation technology, quality of road facilities, road safety, and traffic noise emissions. Methods developed for detection of road surface con... Read More about Urban Road Surface Discrimination by Tire-Road Noise Analysis and Data Clustering.

Requirements for Drone Operations to Minimise Community Noise Impact (2022)
Journal Article

The number of applications for drones under R&D have growth significantly during the last few years; however, the wider adoption of these technologies requires ensuring public trust and acceptance. Noise has been identified as one of the key concerns... Read More about Requirements for Drone Operations to Minimise Community Noise Impact.

Estimation of the noise emissions generated by a single vehicle while driving (2021)
Journal Article
Asensio, C., Pavon, I., Ramos Romero, C., Lopez, J., Pamies, Y., Moreno, D., & de Arcas, G. (2021). Estimation of the noise emissions generated by a single vehicle while driving. Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 95, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.2021.102865

This article presents a method of calculation that allows us to separate the contribution of a specific vehicle to the overall noise pollution in an urban environment. This method will provide local authorities with new operating models so that the c... Read More about Estimation of the noise emissions generated by a single vehicle while driving.

Asphalt-surface defects detection, based on tyre/road noise analysis and geo-processing (2019)
